Project description:Analysis of transcriptional response to UV irradiation in two related crenarchaea, Sulfolobus solfataricus and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.
Project description:Hydroxyurea (HU) is toxic to Sulfolobus cells. To address the basis of the HU toxicity, we performed transcriptome analyses on untreated cells and cells following exposure to 5 mM HU for 4 hours.
Project description:Experimentally mapped transcriptome structure of Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 by hybridizing total RNA (including RNA species <200 nt) to genome-wide high-density tiling arrays (60 mer probes tiled every 25 nt).
Project description:This is ChIPseq result of FadR, which is the only TetR family regulator presented in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius. The aim of the study is to gain insights into the function of TetR regulator by analyzing its whole genome binding sites.
Project description:Experimentally mapped transcriptome structure of Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 by hybridizing total RNA (including RNA species <200 nt) to genome-wide high-density tiling arrays (60 mer probes tiled every 25 nt). Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 growth curve experiments were conducted in batch culture. Reference samples were cultured at mid-log phase (OD600 = 0.312). Eight samples were collected that spanned the key phases of the growth curve. Total RNA from samples of growth curve and reference were directly labeled with Cy3 or Cy5, and were hybridized to the tiling array. Dye-flip experiments were done for each sample. Log ratios were calculated for each probe (growth curve sample/reference). Transcriptome browser is available at http://baliga.systemsbiology.net/enigma/.

Project description:Transcriptome sequencing was carried out on an Illumina HiSeq platform to investigate CRISPR-Cas and DNA repair systems by Csa3b in Sulfolobus islandicus Rey15A. We compared the differently expressed genes in Sulfolobus islandicus Rey15A strain with csa3a overexpression vs. Sulfolobus islandicus Rey15A strain carrying an empty expression vector,We find thatcmr-α (SiRe_0890 ~ SiRe_0895) and cmr-β (SiRe_0597 ~ SiRe_0603)、the DNA double strand break (DSB)repair genes, including nurA, rad50, mre11, and herA (SiRe_0061 ~ SiRe_0064), as well as two subunits of DNA polymerase II (SiRe_0615 and SiRe_0617) that function in DNA repair, were significantly up-regulated. Our data indicated that the Csa3b regulator couples transcriptional activation of cmr genes, DNA repair genes.
Project description:Time series of infection of Sulfolobus solfataricus strain 2-2-12 cells infected with STIV are compared with uninfected cells over 32 h.
